California Trip - Part 4 - Michelle's Wedding

After we got ready, we headed to the Condos for Michelle's wedding at 5. It was a beautiful wedding with a sand ceremony to tie in the kids. After that there were pictures taken and we headed up to the reception and had dinner and dancing. It was fun to be there with family and to see family we haven't seen for a while. It was a fun time and we are glad we got to be a part of it. After the reception, the boys were done, so we walked back to the hotel, and crashed from a busy day so that we could go home the next day.

Our Drive home was long, but we are so glad we are home now. It was a great trip and something I for one totally needed!

California Trip - Part 3 - Beach

On Friday night we went to Michelle's Rehearsal dinner and hung out at the condos right off the beach. It was a beautiful sunset and I am sad I didn't get any pictures because I left my phone in the car. It was a bit cold after the sun went down. We decided to go get ice cream after we left there party and head back to the hotel to sleep off a long day of walking around Legoland.

On Saturday, we got up and they didn't need any help setting up for the Wedding, so we drove down to the beach, but there was literally NO WHERE to Park. So we drove back up to our hotel and walked down to the beach. Gavin didn't really like the water, but loved playing in the sand. Greyson at first didn't like the sand, but started to come around to it and absolutely hated the water. And Garett hated everything about the beach, the water, sand and all of it. He finally fell asleep and took at nap and I should have put him in the sand when he woke up to see if that made a difference, but I didn't.

We went back to our hotel to get ready for the wedding after the beach. It was such a nice day on the beach and I am so glad we got a chance to take the boys and play.

California Trip - Part 2 - LegoLand

We woke up on Friday and the boys were so excited to get to LEGOLAND. It was all they could talk about since we told them the week before that we were going. It was wet and raining, but we had decided we needed to go check it out because it was our only day to do it and we had already bought the tickets. We got there about 15 minutes after they open and it was not busy at all. It rained on us until about 1pm but then the clouds departed and it was sunny the rest of the day. It was so nice, no long lines and lots of fun things to do and look at. The boys had so much fun there and are already asking when we can go back. We didn't even get through the whole park. There is so much to do there, it was a lot of fun. Enjoy the picture overload!

California 2015 Trip - Part 1

On Wednesday the 13th, Mike was supposed to get home from work early and we were going to pack up the Durango and head out to Vegas. Well, that didn't happen. He didn't get home until 7pm and we still had to eat dinner and finish packing. We didn't get the Durango packed and headed out of Eagle Mountain until about 10pm Wednesday night. We made it as far as Saint George at 2am. We found a hotel and brought in the bare necessities and slept until about 7:30 that morning.  We ate breakfast at the hotel, got ready and headed out of St. George at about 9 MST. It was so hot in St. George.

We stopped in Mesquite to get gas and ended up at the Walmart to get some things we had either forgot or needed to grab. We ended up spending an hour there so we got back on the road at about 10 PST. That was the longest drive ever! We didn't make it to our hotel in Oceanside, CA until about 8pm Thursday. After we got all checked in and unpacked, we headed over to Mary's condo and ate dinner with them before we decided to call it a day and head back to the hotel to sleep. It rained a lot on our drive in CA so we knew we were going to be in for it at LegoLand...
